You've got a bug!! They install themselves in the
background when you you view certain Ads. You can delete
all of them, but they come right back (Pesky little
Bastards, they are).

You need to download 'Spybot Search & Destroy'(FREE from
Tucows.com), install it, update the program, then run it.
It will seek out and destroy the "bug" that changes your
search pages. It also gives you the option to "innoculate"
your browser and also protect IE's control panel.

Also, do a virus scan. This bug can be caused by a Worm or
Trojan too (make sure you update the virus files first).

Next, find yourself a good firewall, Zonealarm PRO ($30
US) is the best choice. Run it all the time when you are
online.

Seems like a lot to go through to get rid of these bugs,
search pages and trackers, but once you've got these new
programs running, it won't happen again.
